City revising portion of Utility Criteria Manual governing design of new or replacement utilities

Feedback on changes accepted through January 2017

The City of Round Rock is revising Section I of III out of the Utility Criteria Manual (UCM). The UCM is part of the City’s Design and Construction Standards (DACS), which help to govern design and construction on both existing and future construction within the city limits.

Along with the three UCM sections, the DACS also includes General Guidelines, Drainage Specifications, Transportation Specifications and Standard Specifications. Section I of the UCM, titled “Water, Reuse Water, and Wastewater,” is the most substantive section of the Utility Criteria Manual, addressing most all of the design information needed to design any new or replacement utilities.
